Sure you can DRIVE it, but I wouldn't count on being able to STOP it! Have it towed to a mechanic.

---- When I read the part about the warning light, I thought, sure why not - I did that with my 2001 for awhile.

Then you mentioned the fact the brakes are squealing - THAT is a different matter.

I would head straight away to a brake repair shop...

What is the loud squeel every time you hit the brakes?

Why would the brakes squeal only after reversing on a 1970 Bug?

in VW's when you have the breaks adjusted out too far they tend to grab when reversing. There is an auto adjuster in the rear drum to keep your rear brakes adjusting. If the brakes are worn out they will "hang up" after reverse and cause squeeling.

Automatic transmission fluid squeeling very loud?

Automatic transmission fluid does not squeal. You have a different problem. Brakes squeal, bearings squeal, and belts squeal. Fluids do not squeal. You had better take your vehicle to a mechanic.
